As the knowledge-based economy and awareness of the value of intellectual property rights increases, so too can the potential for disputes. Our dispute resolution lawyers are experienced in the enforcement and defence of IP rights, in particular in relation to trade marks, copyright and designs and increasingly relating to confidential information and disputes over Internet content, including online libel.

IP litigation can often reflect the global nature of rights and our team can co-ordinate with foreign attorneys in cross-border disputes. 

Our experienced mediators bring a realistic approach to disputes, seeking to resolve matters by discussion rather than through the courts and businesses and individuals can be sure of receiving realistic advice on the right strategy where IP is under threat.
